Mojang’s Minecraft universe hit the big screen this weekend, and it has already broken some records, including those set by The Super Mario Bros. Movie.
Video game adaptations to other forms of media don’t always go right. But it seems the latest attempt has gone quite well for its creators, as A Minecraft Movie has just had a record-setting opening weekend, bringing in the most money ever for a box office opening for a videogame adaptation.
The latest report via Deadline says that Warner Bros. and production companies are confirming the movie to have earned $157 million in the US alone during the opening weekend. That handily beat The Super Mario Bros.
